This is the largest mass killing of trans people in recorded history and “constitutes a grave breach of international humanitarian law.” Defense Minister Katz confirmed the strike was intentional without going into further detail.

Wanna talk trans and disability?@SlavaGreenberg and I do too!

“Toward Trans[]Crip Theory,” our special issue of @tsqjournal, is accepting scholarly & creative submissions through May 1.

We know it’s a messy conversation. That’s why it’s important.

You shouldn’t have to be trans to get any sex characteristic-related surgery. It’s not a limited resource. Plenty of cis men get implants and cis women get breast reductions. From @badinfinity2 today and Leslie Feinberg in 1996.

Looking forward to next week’s event at the Ottawa Trans Library where our 4th yr @Carleton_U students will present their projects for the community. It’s been a great pleasure co-teaching with @nlbourdea

These stupid debates over the historicalness of trans identities reminded me: I have 2 queer folks that I've wanted to research, but never had the time. So I thought I'd throw what I know out there, see what the internet can do. The first is a trans woman "interviewed" in 1914..

We have to start teaching gay history 101 because cruising both predates and heavily inspires the hook up apps you're all on.

And when gays clutch pearls around historical queer sex practices, you're playing into reactionary, conservative narratives that are ultimately anti-gay

JKR is in her Holocaust denial era, so here's a thread of reading/viewing recommendations about trans experiences under Nazism 🧵

[Bad Gays @badgayspod]

It is a matter of historical fact that trans people were persecuted by the Nazi regime and saying otherwise is, as a Cologne court ruled in 2022, "a denial of Nazi crimes." https://t.co/QZia1xetTj

[Ben Gidley @bengidley]

As the trans experience of the Holocaust is what everybody is an expert about on this hellsite today (thanks JK), I recommend some actual experts: @ankahajkova @JenniferVEvans @zavinunn @Heike_Bauer @HelenCFinch @RosieRamsden92

[Noë L. Bourdeau @nlbourdea]

Important response and critical information from @zavinunn

[Zavier Nunn @zavinunn]

We shouldn’t credit Rowling with any shock-value at her latest tirade against trans people. As if this is new. It’s just facile distortions of a discourse she wants to weaponize.

Bad history, bad rhetoric, bad faith.
